Where does it take place?

Orienteering generally takes place in forest and woodland areas, although events also take place on fell and moorland areas, and even on sand dunes. Small local events can be found on commons and parkland. City street sprint orienteering is a recent development.
Some areas are quite flat, but at others you'll find yourself having to run (or walk :-)) up and down steep slopes.
